Wedding Planning 101: Delegate. Do not micro-manage!

Planning your own wedding is like being the CEO in your own wedding organization. Almost all leadership classes and books cover the topic of delegation; your wedding is not an exception. Learn to delegate! One of my favorite old sayings - "Don't hire someone you distrust, and trust the ones you hire." Regardless of whether they are vendors you hired or friends helping out, clearly communicate the objectives and schedule, and clearly describe their roles and tasks. Then, trust that they will deliver, have a good sleep the night before, and enjoy your wedding day!
